I still use a prong rest. I'm usually years behind the latest and greatest gear surge. Call me old fashioned.

NAP 2000 here as well. Tried a Whisker Bisquit for several weeks but felt more consistent with the dropaway.
Quick question for the NAP dropaway users. Any tips on getting the factory arrow holder to stick to the shelf? I have problems with mine not sticking, especially the front and rear edges.

RE: Is everyone using???????
Have been using a NAP 3000 for years and love it.I decided to bite the bullet this year and put a QAD ultra on just for giggles and so far so good.
It took a little tweaking but got it shooting where I want it.One thing I like about this drop away is the arrow is always fully captured by the prongs.It will never fall off even if turned upside down.It just may prove to be a good investment and a great rest for hunting.
Time will tell if I like it better then my trusty 3000

I have tried just about every type of rest out there. Right now I have a bodoodle on my bow and a GFK Platinum premier on my girlfriends Rintec. Her Alpine has a Muzzy though and I just took the drop zone off my bowtech and replaced it with the bodoodle. And I have a few others in my tackle box.
I think drop a ways work good for fletching clearance issues, but beyond that they are no different than any other rest if set up correctly.

RE: Is everyone using???????
I've tried lots of fallaways and all seem to do what they're designed to do although some do it better than others imo. Currentlyi'm using aGKF Ultimate Toughman that i took off my sons bow and convertedto a drop away.I harvested two deer using it last season and i plan to use it again this year.I still have my old Golden Premier prong reston hand though and wouldn't hesitate to put it back on my bow should the urge hit me. 
Here's my current set-up and it works great!
